Thank you again eibache! After further searching last night I found a Kjersten Christophersdtr., age 32 who married a Iver Olsen Maalsoen, age 29 in 1825 in the Klaebu parish records. It is number 8.) on the right hand page. Is this the same Kjersten? Still searching last night I found a possible death for Kjersten Christophersdtr. Maalpaas, age 54, on July 27, 1846, in the Klaebu parish records. If I am on the right track, I can work to fill in any children. Thank you again for your help.

I believe you are on the right track, Tjenestepige (female servant) Kirsten Christoffersdatter Timmervold 32 years (i.e. born 1793) must be the same I found baptized Jan 13 1793.
Kirsten Christoffersdatter who died July 27 1846 was a cottars widow, Iver Olsen must have died earlier then, and is most likely the same Kirsten.
Iver olsen and his parents and siblings in 1801

Thank you again eibache! I just found a little bit ago that the Iver Olsen Maarsoen died January 3, 1842. That explains why my first trying to find them in the 1865 census wasn't possible. Thank you again.

Hi eibache,
That I had found earlier and added it to my relatives tree. The one thing I haven't found is the Karen Bendixsdatter's parents or her in the 1801 census. I also ran across the Roald Krokum in different records with this family and haven't figured where he fits in as a relative? I'm thinking I should maybe check for Karen Bendixsdatter in the Strinden records as I think I found her in the emigration list at one time. I'm basically self taught in researching Norwegian records so it takes me awhile. My relative is thrilled to have this information on her family as she knew nothing other than her greatgrandfather's last name, which luckily was the farm name. I think otherwise tracing him would have been impossible, at least for me. Thank you again so much.

In 1821 Karen Bendixdatter came from Strinden to work as a servant at Krokum, see #3
In 1822 she married Matz Christophersen, see #7

Thank you one more time eibache! I am not real familiar with Sor Trondelag area as this is not my family, just helping a relative. When I can't find them, it's like "now where did they go!"
Thank you again.
